A REMARKABLE CASE.


Doncaster Reporter of July 9th,
1887, publishes the following in its
editorial columns
Our readers may recall the cir
cumstance of young clerk, named
Arthur Richold, falling lnsensible
on the Weatley Lane in this town
some time ago, and being picked
up, as he continued perfectly help
less, and taken in u cab by two
gentlemen to the Office of +. W.
Fisher, Esq; the solicitor who EN-
ployed him. On restoring him to
consciousness it was ascertained
that he was afflicted with what
seemed to be an incurable disease.
When he was able to speak he
said he had been to his dinner and
and was on his way back to his
work, when suddenly his head was
in a whirl and he fell in the street
like a man who is knocked down.
On coming to his senses in the soil
citor's office he thought what this
might mean, and feared he was
going to have a fit of illness, which
we all know is very dreadful
thing for a poor man with family
to care for.
With this in his mind he at once
sought the best medical advice
telling the doctors how he had been
attacked. They questioned him,
and found that his present malady
was exhaustion of the nervous sys'
tenn resulting from general debility,
indigestion, and dyspepsia of q
chronic nature. This in turn had
been caused by confinement to his
desk and grief at the loss of dear
friends by death. The coming on
of this strange disease, as described
bv Mr.. Richold, must be of inter
est both to sick and well. He had
noticed for several years previously
in fact, that his eyes and face be-
gan to have yellow look; there
was a sticky and unpleasant slime
on the gums and teeth in the
morning; the tongue coated; and
the bowels so bound and costlyt
that it induced that most painful
and troublesome ailment-the piles

the liver were charging, which
proved to be the terrible fact

would be scanty and high-coloured
with a kind of gritty or sandy
deposit after standing.
These things had troubled MIR
Richold long time, and after hi
fall in the street he clearly perceived
that the fit of giddiness was nothing
more than a sign of the steadl.

which began in digestion and dys
